-habitually waking up an hour before I need to leave for work, instead of like 20 minutes, and waking up then even on days off

-actually keeping my heckin room clean

-updating a digital planner with daily and master tasks I need to do (mostly for cosplay let's be real, but hopefully music too after Anime LA) and using the notes section like a diary to vent and reflect on my goals

-tracking my spending habits to make sure I'm being responsible and know where my money is going

........BRUH I DON'T EVEN RECOGNIZE MYSELF ANYMORE YOU GUYS. I've been a disorganized yolo slob my entire life, and absolutely no shade at disorganized yolo slobs because I kinda liked that lifestyle. But it really feels nice to know what I'm doing, to be aware of my goals and habits, and to be able to track my progress on stuff and make sure I'm doing what I want to be doing? It feels really good! Heck even just having extra time in the mornings to post on Viggif and write about my Feelings in my planner (lol am i usin it rite) before work puts me in an infinitely better mood.

I know myself and I know that usually if I try to keep myself organized in any specific capacity it falls apart in about 3 seconds, but I'm hoping that if I keep this kind of regular daily thing going, especially with how much better I feel about literally every aspect of my life, I can actually maintain it. Fingers crossed lmao.

Also, somewhat related, I bought dinosaur bedsheets. Living my best life. Truly I have become an Adult

Awesome. I'm still waking up early on the regular, room is clean and I'm working on reorganizing it, I have time allocated for certain priorities so I'm consistently making progress on those priorities, I'm keeping track of my spending, and I actually feel sort of on top of my **** for essentially the first time in my life

I'm attempting to get mine together after finishing 2017 with a particularly bad spiral and I'm having trouble really getting started but I'm trying to stay positive.

i know that feel. especially when it feels like literally everything is not together and the prospect of scraping all of it up feels overwhelming. or at least that was my experience.

i think i just lucked out with the timing of stuff and i hit a point where it made sense to 'reset' pretty much everything at once, but I know that's not easy to do and not always really an option. waking up earlier on the regular was probably the biggest step for me, but we're all different and we all have different **** that works. best of luck my dude <3
